This past week in new music has been incredible, and the Weekend Showcase 3.08 edition reflects the quality with 52 songs. From dizzying psychedelic to intimate dream-folk, raucous punk-rock to energizing indie pop, and cinematic electro-pop to searing indie rock, the last seven days had it all. The playlist also reflects the the global nature of music today, as the artists and bands featured represent 12 countries. They include Australia, Canada, Denmark, England, Ireland, Japan, Netherlands, Norway, Russia, Scotland, Sweden, and the United States.

'Frost Burn' is the second single taken from Half Waif's form/a EP, which launches February 24, 2017.

form/a is a collection of tracks that expand on Nandi Rose Plunkett's exploration of home. “There's an inherent restlessness in the way that I write and think about sound," she explained. "I'm the daughter of a refugee, and somewhere in me is this innate story of searching for a home. As a result, I have many – a collection of places that I latch onto, that inspire me, that fuse themselves to me. I'm sentimental, nostalgic – yet constantly seeking what’s next, excavating the sound of my past and coloring it to make the sound of my future. I'm a child of divorce, fiercely loved but forced into independence at a young age; I rocket into relationships with the desire to find roots, commonality, to create stillness in the midst of public noise. In this way, my songs are like the notes of a large scavenger hunt, clues pinned to trees I have known, or tucked under rocks on my path, urging the listener to keep looking a little deeper, because maybe they will find something special in the end.”

form/a will be released on a limited-edition 12”. Art for the cover was shot by Aidan Carlo and hand-stitched by Chilean artist, María Aparicio Puentes.

Half Waif - Frost Burn

Debut EP "Who's Gonna Save Us Now" coming out March 3rd 2017

"We spent a year in our mate's garage writing and recording some tracks. It got pretty dreamy (and sweaty)... and we're digging it... it's good to finally be out and giving you these tunes.

We'll be dropping our debut E.P. in March. It's called "Who's Gonna Save Us Now". This is also the title of the lead single (cause ya gotta have a single ya know...). Feels good to open the garage door and set these tracks free into the world and into ya ear holes.

Peace, 
Crystal Cities “
